He has brought the program to the depths of mediocrity. For the life of me, I couldn&#39;t understand how they extended his contract in early 2010 with such a lackluster record. I guess the UM leadership has seen the error of it&#39;s ways. Good enough, now let&#39;s start rebuilding this program for a national championship. Go Canes.</p>patrick Baker commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e20134899750a7970c2010-11-29T08:24:51Z2010-11-29T08:24:51Zpatrick Bakergiven the history of u-m coachs and their history of moving up to a pro job , look for someone...<p>given the history of u-m coachs and their history of moving up to a pro job , look for someone capable of making that upward move after three or four years, given the return to &quot;greatness?&quot; that is just out of our reach. Gruden might greatly enjoy being ringmaster out there with the Canes. The nfl is going to be convulsive for a while, so it is not so hard to pitch him on moving to Coral Gables. </p>xx commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2013489965769970c2010-11-29T04:17:55Z2010-11-29T04:17:55ZxxGuys, watch this video!

He ran a &quot;cover 2 man-under&quot; almost all the time, which Boston College figured out and everyone started to copy BC&#39;s solution. (Clearing routes combo&#39;d with underneath crossfield crossing routes.) Let&#39;s be real in our comments. Shannon&#39;s superb players made him LOOK like a great Dee C.</p>
<p>After considerable consideration of everyone&#39;s comments I am convinced the guy with the best chance of immediate impact is Mike Leach - he is a winner with a potent O. We need a super- good Dee Coordinator to go with him. Who can we grab for Dee Coord??? </p>NCCANE commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e2013489954580970c2010-11-29T00:32:52Z2010-11-29T00:32:52ZNCCANEhttp://yahoo.comNow Hocutt is now on the clock.

Like I said before, Mike Leach would be a Running Back killer and we have a good stable of Running Backs. I don&#39;t want to see any of them tranfer. UM will say they can&#39;t afford Gruden but I&#39;m all for putting him at the top of the wish list. How many bridges did Butch Davis really burn at UM ? Would he really want to come back to UM ? Some of the coaches on everybody&#39;s wish list make more at the schools they are at already so could UM really compete? Mark Stoops should get an interview and right now he is my choice. Championships is all that matters, You must be an FSU fan in disguise because you must want Miami to be a sneakergate program.</p>darrel commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e201348994f654970c2010-11-28T23:15:09Z2010-11-28T23:15:09Zdarrellets look at this mike leach is a real coach that scores points plays fast football miami fast football recruits...<p>lets look at this mike leach is a real coach that scores points plays fast football miami fast football recruits love fast ball he had the problems at texas tech.we all have r had problems in life .we need a real coach this is one orfense/head coach all n 1 win win.his points our defense.no 1 can;t tell me thats not good.someone said unconn. coach if thats true keep shannon.r coker come back.a real joke 10years no championship we don;t have time to go 2r3 years to win with a green coach the time is now a real coach.mike leach,buch davis.may b mark rick r boise coach.</p>James commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e201348994d945970c2010-11-28T22:47:20Z2010-11-28T22:47:20ZJames Mike Leach saved Texas Tech and would be a constant thorn thorn to FSU and UF if hired.

In my opinion the entire coaching staff must go! The U was bad on both sides of the ball. Hopefully whipple will take his son with him, so we won&#39;t have to worry about him in a U uniform. Randy will surface as a coordinator some place. I think if possible the U should go after Gruden. He has instant name recognition and football intelligence.

The trouble with hiring a first time head coach is that even he doesn’t know where he is deficient.</p>
<p>I have a cousin that’s a Hurricane Hater (a.k.a. “Closet Cane”), his assessment is that Jacory cost Shannon his job. I see it differently. The Shannon administration failed Jacory and all of the other 4 &amp; 5 star recruits that have not been turned into All-Americans over the past few years.</p>
<p>Let’s take Jacory: What would Jimmy have done (WWJJD)? – He would have sat him for at least a year, put about 20lbs of muscle on him and give him a chance to master his position. Of course Jacory thought he was ready &amp; wanted to play but who’s coaching whom.</p>
<p>Overall I have to acknowledge that, like most of you here I Like Randy Shannon, but like all of you here I like winning even more.</p>
<p>I hate to admit it but it was time.<br />

As for this list that someone put together:</p>
<p>The list:<br />
1. Harbaugh - he&#39;s got a contract, the only place he would move to is Michigan.</p>
<p>2. Chris Peterson - He&#39;s got a contract, he can compete for a BCS bowl year in year out at Boise St, he&#39;s turned down better programs than Miami to stay at Boise.</p>

Did he realize on his own that he wasn&#39;t going to get better with our coaching?What does that tell you? With the recent article by NFL scouts about Johnson and Shields and how they didn&#39;t know how to read film? Maybe it was time to make the change. I was rooting for Randy. But we need coaches who are going to make these young men better. I don&#39;t blame any of the players. Its obvious coaching is the problem. All these players will be better with a good H/C</p>Babalawo commented on 'Shannon out as coach at UM (updated)'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451b26169e20147e0373330970b2010-11-28T17:25:00Z2010-11-28T17:25:00ZBabalawoHahaaha!

With the addition of Nebraska to the Big 10, he now has to compete and recruit against top-15 programs Ohio State, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and possibly Penn State. He developed Iowa with 3-star talent and year in and year out he is a candidate for NFL and NCAA top jobs. He runs a pro style offense which fits our talent, but unlike most flashy coaches who are maybe available, he develops lineman, something we have seriously lacked. He also has strong ties to Barry Alveraz, and we know how much respect Donna has for Barry.

If the administration is really &quot;all about winning championships&quot; then they need to come correct with the money and hire a big name like Gruden. Leach? Richt? No thanks!
